NAME

6       clients.conf - FreeRADIUS client configuration
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The clients.conf file contains definitions of RADIUS clients.
10
11       The  information in this file overrides any information provided in the
12       deprecated clients(5) and naslist(5) files.
13
14       The file format is  the  same  as  that  used  for  radiusd.conf.   See
15       radiusd.conf(5) for more details.
16
17       Each RADIUS client entry has the following basic form:
18
19              client <short-name> {
20                     <attribute> = <value>
21               }
22

ATTRIBUTES

24       The  attributes  that  can appear in a client section are listed below.
25       Required attributes are labelled as  such.  All  other  attributes  are
26       optional.
27
28       ipaddr [Required]
29            The IP address of the client.  For IPv6, use "ipv6addr"
30
31       secret [Required]
32            The  RADIUS  shared  secret  used  for  communication  between the
33            client/NAS and the RADIUS server.
34
35       shortname [optional]
36            A short alias that can be used in place of the IP address or fully
37            qualified hostname provided in the first line of the section.
38
39       nastype
40            The nastype attribute is used to tell the checkrad.pl script which
41            NAS-specific method it should use when checking simultaneous use.
42
43            The following values are currently recognized:
44            cisco
45            computone
46            livingston
47            max40xx
48            multitech
49            netserver
50            pathras
51            patton
52            portslave
53            tc
54            usrhiper

EXAMPLES

64              client localhost {
65                      ipaddr          = 127.0.0.1
66                      secret          = testing123
67                      shortname       = localhost
68                      nastype         = other
69              }
70
71       This adds a client for the loopback address. This is useful in  testing
72       the server locally, for example with radclient(1).
73
74              client private-network-1 {
75                      ipaddr          = 192.168.0.0
76                      netmask         = 24
77                      secret          = testing123-1
78                      shortname       = private-network-1
79              }
80
81       This entry represents any client from the 192.168.0.0/24 network.
82
83       The old-style format from 1.x is still accepted by the server, but that
84       form is deprecated.
